Quite amusing that the commentator thought it was in too
-
29 mins gone, and Huddersfield winger Gary Roberts has fallen over twice very theoretically. No instances of Trotmanned yet on the Millwall players, but one 50p-head headed clearance!
-
What about the Torpedo, Arias(?). Did he ever play?
-
Always likened KJ's ball control to bouncing on a trampoline - you could go miles up in the air
-
Row FF for us Block 10ers here
-
Bought 5 tickets yesterday online and they arrived this morning (block 7) - very efficient
-
The attendance for Yeovil Millwall was just over 4k, under 50% of the capacity. I doubt they'll sell out, probably looking at around 6-7k, but whether they'll sell tickets before kick-off is open to question.
-
What the hell was doing for his goal, he left his flank wide open!
-
The way Millwall celebrated the equalisier you'd think they won the league - it was a BIG point for them and perhaps a kick in the backside they needed to re-focus. Look at Swindon - lost 3-0 and drew 1-1 in the past week and fell from 2nd to 5th in the process.

I went to see Yeovil almost grab a win against Millwall last night - key points from the game that may be of interest for Saturday... Pitch. Looked in very good shape - the occasional bald spot but nothing at all to worry about. It was also watered at half time with those pop-up sprinklers, obviously to the Millwall subs' surprise. Stadium You are very close to the pitch. The seating Millwall fans were located in Blocks PP and P of the Cowlin stand. Block N is next to the black sheeting that provides the segegration, but appears to have a few season ticket holders on the end of the rows, perhaps to be expected. Yeovil Played 4-4-1-1 on the night. Appear to concentrate its attacks down the left with a long throw threat very potent on that side from their pacey full back. They worked themselves into some decent positions last night but lacked the killer ball. Danger players Gavin Williams plays in the 'hole' and is arguably their playmaker and best player, certainly in terms of running with the ball. Central midfielder JP Kalala and the aforementioned left side threat, Nathan Smith and Andy Welsh should also be watched. Dean Bowditch took his goal well, but was sometimes left isolated up front. Verdict Before last night's result filtered though I thought that if Saints go behind, it may prove difficult to get back and win. However as long as they are not over-confident they have a good chance of victory, but Yeovil can and will bite. Millwall had a lot of the play and the chances last night but just couldn't get the decisive opener. Yeovil did and then had something to hang onto, preferring to concentrate further goal threats on the break. They nearly managed it too - Millwall's equaliser was scored by Jon Obika, ex-Yeovil loanee who didn't celebrate. There was a small pitch invasion which led to the stewards, local plod and the Met Police trying to get the fans off. The Millwall keeper didn't help, celebrating and then hugging some of the fans that came on!

..and be quick about trying, Yeovil may (and probably will) introduce restrictions on buying tickets, to people already on its database if they reside outside their local postcodes (BA, SP, BH, DT, EX, TA)... I believe the away fans will be sat in the Cowlin stand, Block PP (and possibly P)...
-
Didn't he have a good long throw on him when at Saints? If so, Spurs don't appear to use it
-
about 2 miles or so, accessible by an awful winding road that I wouldn't recommend walking on... Bus or taxi I think would be the safest means of getting to the town.
-
If Saints hadn't had the 10 point deduction, we would be now eight points behind 2nd with a game in hand... Next season will be the one to judge AP, with a full pre-season and transfer window to wheel and deal available. 6th would be fantastic of course next month however!
-
Look further up, we would be 8 points off 2nd as well with a game in hand.... Ironic
-
I may be going to see Yeovil play Millwall on Tuesday so I will scout the surface in preparation for Saturday!
-
Looks like it's a sellout folks.
-
203 appearances, 119 goals according to Wiki, at just 22 years of age. Superb. You'd think just get a beast of a physical centre half on him, and you'd keep him quiet! Reading up further on him, it would appear Barcelona identified and really looked after him and his family from an early age. They paid for his medical bills for his growth hormone deficiency for example. I'm sure he would have more goals, had his debut not been put on hold until he had Spanish citzenship as well. Saturday it's the Ronaldo vs Messi show
-
Yep. I was surprised to see them listed online this morning. Yeovil have been very strict on letting people into the seats in the past, with people being shuffled onto the terracing (space permitting naturally). I'd be interested to know in which stand the actual away seating is located. I always remember it being in the Agusta Westland Stand (in the corner next to away terrace on dugout side of pitch), but Saints' site lists the Cowlin stand, which is the opposite side?
-
Looks like either the seats have been sold out, or withdrawn from general sale as they are no longer listed online...
-
Yes, there is usually a few ready for business. If not, the ones we used to use were Radio Cabs 01935 426666 but not sure what they charge now. http://home.btconnect.com/yeovilradiocabs/ is its web address... There should be a bus service that runs to the Town Centre as well. If you get the bus into the town centre, jumping on the No.1 to Abbey Manor will drop you off almost next door to the Arrow, there's a local Tesco store nearby also. HTH,
-
What time are you getting into Yeovil Junction? You may have to get a taxi to the pub/ground as the station is 2/3 miles outside the town itself, and the road is not exactly the best for walking either! Pub-wise, you have three choices, though I am unsure which one is best for away fans today as I moved away from Yeovil a few years ago now. 1. The Arrow (BA21 3TL) which is on Stourton Way on the Abbey Manor estate is the closest. Google Map link 2. Airfield Tavern (BA22 8UX) on Bunford Lane. (Palmers fish and chip shop is opposite). Google Map link 3. Further afield you have the Bell, which is on Preston Road (BA21 3AG). Google Map link Huish Park is BA22 8HF.

The Official Summer Transfers and HCDAJFU Thread
markr27 replied to supersonic's topic in The Saints
Donnelly would be a decent acquisition, perhaps the attacking central midfielder we desperately lack in the squad? He's does have a growing reputation - Sky sports compiled a report on him a few months ago... http://www.skysports.com/football/transfers/scout/0,24035,15198_5705290,00.html -
It was quite amusing to see Lambert being put in a sleeper hold at several throw-ins, yet did not get one free kick. Happens every game though....
